My Money – Personal Finance & Budgeting Online Course

Get Free Course Advice and Guidance

Personal finance and budgeting is a plan that helps you to allocate income towards expenses, savings and debt repayment. It is important to ensure you are spending less than you have coming in to avoid debt problems and other financial issues. There are many factors to include when allocating a personal budget, including mortgages or rent, bills, insurance and other important amenities. Once these are paid, it is possible to save for more luxurious items or spend what is known as discretionary income.
